Direct connections without the double talk
Some providers take liberties when describing their carriers and whether their network offers border gateway protocol (BGP). We use Gigabit Ethernet connections from Internap, Time Warner, XO Communications and Level3 - we don't push traffic to low-end providers. And, each network has its own entrance to the facility.
Internap FCP - intelligent routing
The Colo4Dallas network provides the best of all worlds: BGP to support multiple providers, enhanced by the Internap 5200 flow control platform. Forget about the shortest or theoretical best route - our Internap FCP appliance definitively identifies the fastest route for your data. If it senses any latency or packet loss in the chosen direction, it reroutes around it. And, it won't send traffic on a long, circuitous cross-country route just to avoid AS hops. With diverse entrances and FCP, the Colo4Dallas network sends traffic down the smartest path.
Get all the bandwidth you demand
At Colo4Dallas, you'll always get 100 percent of the bandwidth you buy. Sign up for a 10 Mbps plan burstable to 100 Mbps, and you'll always be able to burst to 100Mbps. Why should you have to pay for 20Mbps in hopes of getting 10Mbps? You don't have to accept getting less than what you purchase.
Carrier-Friendly with longtime relationships
The members of our management team are telecommunications veterans. We have long-standing relationships with many Internet providers. These strong working relationships underscore our stability and enable our customers and carriers to readily partner. If your preferred carrier is not currently available, Colo4Dallas will work with that carrier to gain access independently. We make commitments and follow them through for years.
